How Sad!!!!

Haiti is already the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere and now this. After visiting Haiti last year and seeing the country it really causes me to pause and think once again how fortunate we are. Haiti already had nothing, and I mean nothing, and now this. They can't get a break. The tough part is that they have no way of helping these people. I just finished reading a book about how little medical help the country has and now one of there only hospitals collapsed.

Yes, I am totally safe. I did not even feel the quake. Some students and staff reported feeling it from different parts of the city but as far as my area, nothing. Thanks for all of your concern but please do not worry about me, send out some prayers for the Haitians.






*Capital building(Similar to the Whitehouse) It looks like it was a nice building but I assure you the entire area behind this camera is not well off at all.

Perhaps this will once again focus much needed attention on this country and its beautiful people.
